Untitled (two forms) 1996

Editor: Here we have Peter Soriano’s “Untitled (two forms)” from the Harvard Art Museums. The bright colours and layered shapes really grab your attention, but what’s the story behind it all? What do you see in this piece? Curator: The process of creating these layered shapes is key. Think about the physical act of screen printing or similar techniques used to produce multiples. How does this accessibility challenge the traditional hierarchy of fine art? Editor: So, it’s more about the making than the image itself? Curator: Exactly! It invites us to consider the labor and materials involved in its production, and even its potential consumption within a broader market. Editor: That really shifts how I see it – thanks! Curator: My pleasure. Thinking about art this way offers a fresh perspective.
